Positronium shouldn't last long enough to be interesting. It's an "atom" assembled from an electron and its antimatter twin — ...

Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has ...

It seems like the stuff of science fiction, but NSF-sponsored researchers working at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, have probed the properties of whole atoms of antimatter, the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The research team at ALICE, A Large Ion Collider Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), confirmed the first-ever ...

Scientists studying the tracks of particles streaming from six billion collisions of atomic nuclei at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) -- an 'atom smasher' that recreates the conditions of ...

Antimatter is a brain-bending thought experiment come to life, and physicists have just proved they can transport it. Physicists just packed 92 anti-protons into a special magnetic crate and drove ...

Up next, another installment in the continuing quest to understand antimatter, that stuff that's supposed to be the opposite of matter. It's supposed to have been created during the Big Bang in equal ...

Scientists in Geneva are taking some antiprotons out for a spin—a very delicate one—in a truck, in a never-tried-before test drive. If this so-called antimatter comes into contact with actual ...
